+ * Memory free and alloc took a significant part of the total

+ * - sys_select has a 192 byte (enough for 256 fds) buffer on the stack.
+ * Please avoid selecting more than 5000 descriptors
+ * (kmalloc > 4096 bytes), and you can't select
+ * more than 170.000 fds (kmalloc > 128 kB)
+ * - sys_poll stores the first 24 file descriptors on the
+ * stack. If more than 24 descriptors are polled, then
+ * additional memory is allocated, but the first 24 descriptors
+ * always lie on the stack.
+ * - the poll table contains 8 wait queue entries. This means that no dynamic
+ * memory allocation is necessary for the wait queues if one of the first
+ * 8 file descriptors has new data.
